Hi! The hands of my MG Turn A just fell apart, bad plastic i guess. Is there any nice hands I could by that would fit it? It has white armor on the back of the hand that I would like you use but in worst case I’ll use any hand as long as it snaps in place.
I’m trying to figure out how to top coat the mg unicorn gundam. I tried searching online but couldn’t find a definitive answer. Am i suppose to disassemble the kit and top coat it? top coat it before assembly? mask off the psycho frame? I’m going to try and flat coat the kit and i think it will mess up the pink frame if i coat it…[Read more]
top coat will affect the finish. either mask or take out parts that you don’t want affected. now for the unicorn, i believe it will be easy to just put it in unicorn mode and do the top coat if it’s too much trouble to disassemble and top coat the individual parts. i only do flat coats on armor parts of my kits and i leave the frame and metallic…[Read more]
I have always want to get a PG kit, but due to the size of them, which always make me stop from getting it until recently. After watched the HLJ TV for the PG UNICORN, I think I can manage to fit it inside my Ikea glass display. So here is my question, for those who own one, can someone tell me how tall is it from head to toe? With the stand…[Read more]
The Unicorn in destroy mode is 39cm/12.5inch tall without the display base. The display base ads another 3.5cm/1.37inch.
The base is 28.5cm/11.13inch wide and 23.5cm/9.18inch deep (displayed with the Gatling guns on the sides)
I hope this answers your question
i’m trying to save on trips and hobby paint purchases. i’ve been going through my enamel gloss black paint bottles like crazy trying to achieve that high gloss base coat for my metallic inner frame schemes. i’m wondering if anyone has any idea of a good substitute for black enamel gloss paint that i can purchase in a whole can (from the…[Read more]
u may as well just suck it up and buy aclad paints its a pretty big bottle of primer
although the idea to get a primer for cheaper is good it may not be worthwhile since those hardware paints kinda arent the greatest paints u could try krylon but thats about it
yeah, i guess the pigments wouldn’t be as fine as they’re not designed for airbrushing. i can’t get alclads where i’m at, even shipping. i’m using testors metalizers and they’re working real nice with testors gloss black enamel. i just won’t be able to get chrome finishes. same thing with primers. will search if krylons have non-spray cans, might…[Read more]
Rust-Oleum makes gloss black in spray cans, and if I’m not mistaking, those are enamels.
So you could either spray them directly out of the can or de-can it for spraying it through your airbrush.
I spray a lot of aerosol spray cans mend for the automotive industry though my airbrush after de-canning them, and even the metallic ones go through the…[Read more]
It’s really simple, just stick a straw to the “nozzle” of the spray can using some tape and spray it in a jar. Just keep in mind that the aerosol propellant will still expand, so don’t close the lid of the jar for 24 hours or so. It might explode…
The GostofZeon on YouTube has a tutorial on the subject
been a while since i last updated well i started painting up the sazabi again i got through some of it im going to get this done ASAP my hi nu is lonely 🙂
nice! i’m contemplating on getting this to accompany my Nu ver ka. it’s just a daunting and intimidating project for just the sheer size and for it being a ver ka… and i’m still finishing on the Nu. hope you finish it soon.
i understand that struggle completely especially when your at the funnels……….
Anyways happy building on the nu im getting through this sazabi and im hoping to get it done by next week latest
Well it’s taken me over two years off and on, but I finished the Buster portion of my custom Siege Buster. The backpack still isn’t done (you can see it in the background in the one picture and is why I’m still posting in this section)
That is really good looking. have you considered getting some better hands, like the Hobby base mechanical ones? Something with that much work, and looks that nice, should have hands better then the cheesy ones they give you with most of the master grade kits.
